My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

What Was Norman Thinking?

Dave's head injury had happened during the dive for the ball coming into the box which means that he must have made some kind of collision with someone.

"If Dave is unfit to continue the match after this that means that sixteen-year-old Alexander will be making his debut for Unique FC," Jim said.

"Yeah, it's been ten minutes now and he's still lying on the floor," Steve said.

"He made a collision with Sandro but the striker is still standing like nothing happened," Jim said. "He made a collision with an iron head."

[ Blood spill has stopped ]

[ Healing process has begun ]

Dave slowly sat up on the floor after the wound on his forehead head had been covered up with a bandage.

"Should I tell the coach to bring you off?" One of the medical personnel asked him.

"No, no, I can continue," Dave said, waving him off.

"Are you sure, what you just sustained is a head injury and you've lost quite a lot of blood?" The medical personnel said.

"I can continue," Dave said.
